percoset withdraws

[imbmr13]

How long does it last? I have been taking 10\325 mg 3x a day for the past two years on and off. I am suffering now, from several deppresion, body pains and addition. I need help! I am a mom of a 2 year old, I want my life back.

Littlebit,

Thanks so much for the inspiring words, I can't tell you how much it means right now. I attempted to go through a fast and furious taper but soon realized it was too much too fast. I have been so sick for a week and have lost almost 15 pounds. However that glimpse I did get in the process was enough to keep me focused. I am only taking 5mg now every four hours to a max of three per day. I'm going to continue lowering it back with a little more ease. I still feel like hell but I sooo want to be free of these demons. I just realized how much you came off of...astonishing! May I ask how you achieved this and how long it took? Thank you so much for everything you're an angel :-)

Hi littlebit,

First let me start by saying congrats! Wow what a victory! Thanks so much for sharing your story. You nailed all the words you could have wrote by stating "not stop smiling". I know in my heart this is true, but my body and mind disagree. I wish you continued success and keep on smilin :-)

Wow, I've been watching these forums for almost a year knowing at some point I would form enough courage to join. I refused to believe I had a problem, but since I am here clearly I do. My burden is percoset (doctor prescribed). I don't believe this medication is doing my body justice and to be honest my tolerance is growing. I've been doing a hefty taper for the past four days and although I feel like hell, it's weird I catch myself remembering this old me- free of influence. I know the withdrawal question has been beat to death so what I'm looking for is anyones motivational words of how their life improved after quitting. I want to know there really is a silver lining. Please share if you have a story of triumph so I may be encouraged by your strength and outcome. Thank you so much....
